Waikiki Aquarium

Museums / Galleries, Waikiki

User Rating: ***** 4.9

Fodor's Review:

This amazing little attraction harbors more than 2,500 organisms and 420 species of Hawaiian and South Pacific marine life, endangered Hawaiian monk seals, sharks, and the only chambered nautilus living in captivity. The Edge of the Reef exhibit showcases five different types of reef environments found along Hawaii's shorelines. Check out the Sea Visions Theater, the biodiversity exhibit, and the self-guided audio tour, which is included with admission. Programs include Exploring the Reef at Night, Shark Nites, Stingray Tracking, and Aquarium After Dark activities. Give the aquarium an hour, including 10 minutes for a film in its Sea Visions Theater.

Names for all those fish

Posted by Maritza from Milwaukee, WI on 3/8/06

How nice to be able to name the fish that we saw rather than just calling them the blue fish, the yellow fish and the green fish. Great labeling so that you know what you are looking at both here and in the waters surrounding the island.
